Description
Self-contained cabin in exchange for 2hrs per day gardening, cleaning or home maintenance...
We are a small homeschooling family living off-grid on 19 acres in the rolling hills of Kin Kin, in the hinterland of Noosa.
I am a massage therapist who works part-time from home and out in town. I love to dance.
In my 20's I also travelled through wwoofing on intentional communities, rainbow gatherings etc... Solo, and then also with a child.
We are on solar power, rain water and have basic compost toilets. Hot showers are dependant on the sun.
Living is basic, air is clean, mostly quiet and private...
Come and enjoy the hills... Learn some new skills... Share some of your skills...
Ideally you love gardening and/or have handyman/woman skills. I have some home repairs that we could use help with... also whipper snipping and general gardening, cleaning etc.
Minimum one week stay... Please contact in advance... My schedule gets crazy busy with kids, work and study. 😉

Space for parking camper vans
My driveway is steep concrete strips... have had a bus and small trucks go up... and turn around... but it's a little tricky and some friends haven't wanted to attempt it... if you're confident and bus isn't super big, it's ok. Coaster or smaller no problems.
